- When Soldiers Fall: How Americans have Confronted Combat Losses from World War I to Afghanistan (OUP, 2014: ix + 301 pages) is the first monograph to explore in historical perspective American society’s response to combat casualties. Taking five years to research and write, it exploits many previously untapped primary sources, in the American and British National Archives and over seventy collections of private papers. It covers almost a century of American warfare, from World War I to the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. It won the 2015 Neustadt Prize for the best book on American Politics.
